Peter and Paul did not have the Bible, we do. It is obvious things were different at that time. God used things to get the church started, to get the Word out to people of that time that the savior had come. That Jesus is the savior.
To anyone reading this let us pray and Agree: Dear God, Thank You for the many precious promises we have from You. Thank You, that you have promised to be with us and to keep us no matter where we are or how far we roam. I pray for Your protection and grace be with us through the day and night, Let us come closer to you. In Jesus Name. Amen
AMEN dude I really appreciate your Christ centered and Scripturally accurate content Gerald from AOC Network's TH-cam channel ministry please keep it up for the furtherance of The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏❤️👊. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't. I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict. Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers. Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word. Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.
@@isakayyik966 and @Lyndon Murphy Ik what this feels like and it sucks so badly we all go through season like this but it will be ok. Just keep on seeking as best as you can and it will work out for you guys, alright. Don’t be anxious or have anxiety about anything it’s not from God just get into a closet or room and get rid of all distractions and try, try to pray to God to help you to pray and start praying, you got this never give up. “None is good, no not one” we all are not even close to being perfect but we’re on our way to the Father. It will be ok seek help confess your sins to others and when evil gets shined upon it flees from the light. The lord is will you do not fear or be anxious just pray and try to read and pray. God loves you all so so much. Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Just keep on pressed bro 😎 y’all got this.
Ezekiel 36:25-27 “ I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws” That’s what is happening when we are led by Holy Spirit in everything Holy Spirit will have us say and do ❤️🔥
Ezekiel 23:20 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. Ezekiel is a joke dude. Why even take it seriously?
Stanley Thundersong Beauchamp The gospel of salvation -how to be saved for sure! The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we make Him Lord of our life. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we repent and get baptized. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we fear God and work righteousness. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we confess our sins and ask for His forgiveness. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we receive Him as our personal savior. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we believe He died for our sins. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we invite the Lord into our heart. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we receive the Eucharist of holy communion. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we keep the commandments and sell our possessions. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we forgive those who have trespassed against us. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we stop sinning. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we walk the isle and join the church. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we pray the sinners prayer. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we are confirmed. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we deny ourself, take up our cross and follow Him. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we observe Yom Kippur. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we endure unto the end. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we kneel at an old fashioned altar and cry a hot scalding bucket of tears. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if while listening to "Just as I am" we decide to walk the isle and give our heart to the Lord. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we pray the rosary. The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we DO ANYTHING! Don't pervert it by adding to it. The gospel is found in 1 Corinthians chapter 15:1-4. "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel... By which also ye are saved,... how that Christ died for our sins... he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures." Just keep it simple. (2 Corinthians 11:3) God says salvation is found through faith in the finished cross-work and resurrection (Ephesians 2:8-9.) It is only faith that can justify and count for our righteousness. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. (Romans 4:5) Salvation is not getting our sins forgiven, it's believing they already are! Source - Truth Time Radio - also on youtube - for solid bible study!
But the fruits of the spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, faith. Meekness, Temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5: 22,23
I would love to hear more about walking in the spirit. Thank you Alan parr for making a videos that I can always understand. And it seems like every time I'm struggling with something you come out with a video that covers it. Every time. I struggle with letting God take full control. And a lot of other things but I'm working on it. God bless you. and everyone that sees this.
@@2ndPigeon We take things by faith. We believe what the Bible says as truth. We can also know by speaking in tongues. It was, and still is, a sign that the believer had received the HS. But when the Chruch teaches against it, it becomes harder to receive. The Holy Spirit is being grieved and quenched by many. If you mean water Baptism, that is not true. When you believed with your heart and confessed with your mouth that Jesus Christ is who He, and the Word of God says He is, and the HS has revealed this to you, then you are filled and sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise. God promised to send the HS to abide in you. This you must believe, as well as everything else He says He wants to give you. Read Acts. It's a transition from Law to Grace. The disciples first taught you had to be baptized in water for the remission of sin, but that's not correct. When people started speaking in tongues upon "hearing" the Word of God, they knew it wasn't received by being baptized in water first. There's no remission of sin without the shedding of blood. We must believe He wants to give us these things for us to receive them. We can't come to God without Him drawing us unto Himself. It's the work of the HS to reveal Jesus to us, in all His glory. Water Baptism is what you do afterwards so the whole world knows (even the angels see) that you believe in the life, death, and resurrection, of Jesus Christ, and now you have been raised from spiritually dead to spiritual living as well. It's a declaration, a ritual, of what has happened to you. It isn't necessary for salvation. We believe, baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire, and then water baptized. You no longer walk in the Kingdom of Darkness. You have been translated into the Kingdom of Light. Now, that doesn't mean you didn't carry some of the darkness with you when you came. They are called Strongholds the devil/evil spirits have built up in you and have deceived you with in the past. We have to spend time looking for the "old" lies we used to believe and purge those from our minds and hearts and replace them with the truth we find in Christ. As we do, our light shines brighter and brighter. You are on the right path. He's as close as your own breath. If you are thirsty, He will fill you with living water, even to overflowing, amen! You'll be splashing your living water all over others, and they will be blessed, too, praise God.
I need to ask forgiveness from a couple folks that I wronged before I was walking with the Lord. Both from years back.. Pray for courage for me.. Joshua 1:9 has been constant in my heart and mind as of late "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Love you all, and thank you Allen for another video, and the time and work it takes to produce them.
Robbie I've been thinking about Joshua and the message God gave him also. It seems that every where I look and all of my thoughts have been to be courageous, courageous, courageous! I'm reminded daily in my walk with God. 🙏🏾✨🕊
As I prepared to make coffee one morning, I heard. "No more coffee - tea." So I quit drinking coffee and. now my stomach upsets are rare rather than constant. Thank you Lord! I think that for some reason God is working on my physical health. Perhaps because I'm 73? I get messages such as 'start eating clean foods only', 'quit storing food in plastic', 'quit drinking water out of plastic bottles'. When I quit drinking from plastic bottles, the joint pain that I suffered in my shoulders and hips for many, many years disappeared Within a few days. Thank you, God!.
Great teaching as always brother parr!!! I’m currently at a 3,3,3 and a low 2 on the last one this is amazing for showing the areas I need to improve in God bless brother! I got an 11 so a 55% I got some work to do
Thank you for being transparent. My struggle is with patience; especially while driving. I drive for a living part time and I treat it like a drag race. I knew it was wrong, but now I will be in prayer and bring in the Holy Spirit while driving!
Hey Mr. Allen I recently committed to accountability through Covenant Eyes and when I did my ability to resist my temptation as skyrocketed through the roof. So I appreciate the notice about that amazing app.
Please do more videos on these two topics! Just listening and being honest with myself about areas that I struggle with, was illuminating. Thank you so much🙏🏾
*50%* yielding: *3.* I'm not perfect, so sometimes I can discern when the holy spirit is prompting me to do or not to do something. Other times, I might not know or even obey the holy spirit. displaying: *3 for all.* empowered: *2.* It isn't very often that I experience this. worship and praying: *2.* Again, I'm not perfect. I struggle praying and worshipping correctly.
Phillip and Peter did not have the New Testament, we do! If any feeling we think is from the Holy Spirit does not line up with God’s Word it is not from the Holy Spirit. If we are not humbly studying ALL of God’s Word in context trusting and obeying God asking for wisdom and discernment we will think all kinds of things are the Holy Spirit. God does not say empowering is evident by a lot of miracles! Singing worship to God? Lifting hands is never said to be worship in the Bible! Read it, worship is BOWING DOWN to God. Does God say our prayers need to be empowered?🤔 Worship and praying in the Spirit? Where is that in God’s Word???? The fruit of the Spirit is THE fruit, not plural with a s. If you only have symptoms of some of it you do not have Him.
You got to know who the holyspirit is to walk in it. Walking in the spirit requires us to bring God words into everything we do so he can make our paths straight. Praising God worshiping him in spirit and truth. Follow God in deed and truth. Loving God with all thy heart mind soul and strength. Love,joy,peace patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness gentleness and self control are the fruit of the spirit. So ask God to help walk in the fruits of righteousness then you are walking in the spirit.
This was very encouraging. Though I only scored a 12 (3's across the board), it showed me that I am growing in these areas and where I might need work. 1 - 3 I'm sensitive to promptings, but lack the strength to always carry them out. 2 - 3 I'm definitely growing in all areas of fruit, but I struggle with gentleness. I come from a hard background, and the Lord is still softening my heart. 3 - 3 As it relates to #1, I struggle with boldness and carrying out the Spirit's leading. 4 - 3 I can worship like no other, but I could always pray more. Thanks brother Parr
Random acts of kindness is me! I believe in the gifts of the spirit y'all... I just randomly bless folks. Whether it be with a word of encouragement or buy them a cup of coffee. Thankful for this video because its a personal confirmation that the gifts are still in operation 😊
First of all you have to have the Spirit/seed and that's by faith alone. Then after your saved eternally you obey his word. Even if you don't feel like it the sprit is still at work.
@@2ndPigeon to each man a measure of faith God gives. Faith has to be in the correct object to become saving faith. Just like you believe chair will hold you up when you sit in it. That's faith exercised. To place your faith in Christ and his sacrifice is saving faith. You choose to rely upon the Lamb that was slain and christ crucified the coin and the finished work of Christ Jesus presenting me justified by faith to God by his shed blood. Jesus doing what he said he would do. Save you to the uttermost. Hebrews says see that you enter that rest. I was trying of I'm trusting. I was running 🏃♀️ now I'm resting
Exactly 💯. AMEN brother Allen Parr I really appreciate how The Lord our God has used your ministry for the furtherance of The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏❤️👊. You've reached thousands to millions of people who are really seeking after The Truth of God's Existence, Word and Character in whether Christianity is true or not people will always disagree but to have good reasoning for agreeing or disagreeing with someone is important so thanks for uploading this video.

@@donaldwortham6227 Could you skip the religious platitudes please? I want to understand you but sentences like "Faith has to be in the correct object to become saving faith." just really doesn't mean anything. Faith is just gullibility so I don't see much use for it.
@@2ndPigeon your a sinner. He wants us to turn from our sins.. God hates sin. He sent his son Jesus born of the virgin Mary. To die on the cross in your place. Some body had to pay the penalty. So if you reject the only payment God will reject you. You will have to pay for it throughout eternity. It's free. It's eternal and will never change. In order to go to heaven you have to be pardoned of all sins past present and future and given a new heart. You want like the things you used to like. So if you want to be saved. just tell Jesus you accept his payment, him on the cross, for your sins and new heart for salvation and he will hear and save you eternally. Just ask him to do it and he will do it. He will save you to the uttermost.
To anyone who sees this, I struggle with lust and sexual immorality. I don't know how to overcome it. I believe in God and what Jesus did for me. I am a Christian yet I am always giving in to these particular temptations.
I struggle with food I am entirely too heavy it is my comfort Lord please help me stop turning to food for gratification also I need to work on my patience level with adults I also need to stop smoking
You are doing a great job, please keep going. Walking, living in the Holy Spirit is so important. Please keep sharing your great insights, you are a blessing. Thank you and God bless you.
Thank you Jesus for dying for my sins. I’m still trusting in you even though I’m struggling putting groceries in the refrigerator, and paying bills. I lost my job because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition (Lupus) and Heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption from Forsyth Hospital. My husband passed away three years ago, Im all alone. I’m a single mother. Both of my sons are autistic and non verbal. Every month is a struggle, a battle to not end up on the streets. I’m so depressed and embarrassed by my situation. I post my story all over to spread awareness of what mandates are doing, not just to myself but to many other families. I’ve been put down and mocked because of my circumstances it truly hurts me. BUT even after all these things. I STILL HAVE FAITH GOD WILL PROVIDE. He has sent strangers to help me. I’m forever grateful! EVEN as I face homelessness seemly every month with two young children. I have faith our Heavenly Father will provide. Thank you Jesus.
May God bless you and your family. (As well as the rest of the people watching this video, and those who are not). I scored a 15.7 out of 20. I did better than I thought but I still got some work to do. As one of the only kids in my school that believes in our Lord, your videos really help
normally I don't know how to worship and pray but the Holy Spirit has been helping me and even coming up with ideas on how to preach the gospel in the drama form.
Amen, we all struggle that’s why we need Jesus Christ, the spiritual warfare is real, the battle belongs to Christ. We’re bias on how we see ourselves, only God can measure our struggles and level of faith. Proverbs 3:5-6 🙏💕🕊 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight.”
@@hlengiweselowa3117 Why would you trust the bible after all the translations and alterations that happened over the last 2000 years? Entire books got removed for example by the catholic church. It's not wise to trust this to still be accurate.
Isn't reading God's Word where you find help in the #1) area ? It sounds like your saying make sure you're right with God first before starting the study...... Wow.....🤦🤷
3343 When witnessing, I often feel quite strongly - well, it's like my feet are dragging, so to speak. Time and again I can still speak up, even just a bit, because I remind myself that it's not my strength that I need to rely on. It's hard to push to say even simple things, sometimes, but God is good. Prompting: I remember some failures, I think, and some successes. None of the failures are on God's part - any actual successes (I don't know everything) are because of His mercy. Fruit: I genuinely think some people near me might place me as very patient, but I see where I struggle there. Working on self-control, too. Walking: trying to remember to be grateful throughout the day, and that 'all things work together for good for them that love God.' A lot of obstacles and difficulties pop up, but eyes should always be moving off of the storm and back onto the Savior. --- Thanks for the vid! ==== Currently there's a struggle at my job. Praying for deliverance here: there's a decision (not related to my area) that I'm in disagreement with (I believe it's sinful), and that I spoke up against. I get worries like "Did I not do enough? Should I have pushed harder?" or related. At the same time, I'm to be a reliable worker that represents Christ: to act in a way that honors Jesus. These worries are the exact type of thing that should serve as a reminder to focus back on Jesus and trying to reflect Him. To yield this to Him, and follow His guidance, rather than trying to mull things over constantly in my power. If I constantly am wondering "Should I do more? Did I do wrong?" (etc.), then I'm not yielding to Him, I'm stifling myself in worry while trying to find some loophole or the like. I've a long way to go, but Jesus is worthy.
You sound horribly indoctrinated. I hope you get out one day. Check out the recovery from religion foundation. They help people from all cults and religions find their way out of superstition.
The flesh video and the Spirit video were so convicting that I actually put it (the flesh one) off until I was ready to face some truths about myself, but that conviction has led to freedom as well as hope that it’s the Spirit who helps me to overcome and by His grace, I press on towards the heavenly goal/prize. Thankful to the Lord for you, Brother Allen!
Walking in the spirit sounds a lot like obedience, gullibility, and susceptibility. How do you tell the difference between something you feel like doing and being led by the holy spirit?
Praise God 🙏 almighty!! To walk in the spirit. My score 1.3 2.3 3.3 4.4 5.3 There you have it. But I am trusting God to perfect that which concerns me in the spirit. Thank you for sharing Bro. Parr!! God bless you 🙏
Not going to lie, this one was confusing to do lol. Scored a 50 but I cant say I really notice the holy spirit pushing me to do much of anything other than the basic right or wrong choices anyone could make. I also dont notice the spirit allowing me to do anything either, then again I dont fully understand that. Any advice?
Allen, patience is the number one thing I learned from my father. I can wait until the cows come home, so to speak. My Dad was a pastor at our church since I was a child. He passed away in 2017. Learned a lot about the fruits of the spirit. Still learning. God bless you brother and keep spreading the message of God to the nation.
So my question is..are you talking about the little voice that I hear a lot, about doing or knowing what I should do? I say it's God but others call it our conscience. Also I really needed to listen to this but I find the music very distracting and seems to compete with what you are saying. Thank you
The Lord is coming! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!!
Lord, Please help me grow and walk with you better..through your Spirit please let the fruits 🍉 of the Spirit grow in my life so that I don’t gratify that flesh and sin .. Thank you Jesus for your strength and love
Recently this week I read Romans 12 with my family and it brought up the spirit. I didn't have a very solid idea of what being or walking in the spirit meant so this video was very helpful. A question I have is concerning worship, how do you determine whether you are worshipping in the spirit or if it's just feel good emotional feelings? Or does the Holy Spirit give us those good feelings. How do you differentiate worshipping purely on emotional feelings versus worshipping in the Spirit?
I used to ask myself the same question. I arrived at this - All good things come from God so if I feel good while worshiping I dont analyze or question it, I take my joy and good feelings at the time as a gift from God. What I don't do is rely on it or expect my worship to always bring emotional euphoria. Sometimes depression is not lifted after a session of prayer or worship but I do not rate my worship only on the good feelings it produces but on the fact that I am giving God His due regardless if it makes me feel good or not. Not sure if I made any sense lol but just wanted you to know that I can relate.😊
It's been going great! I've learned a lot about walking in the Spirit these past few months. It means to live your life not basing your joy upon your earthly performance but in the finished work of Christ. The Christian walk does not call for the ignorance of emotions but the directing of your emotions. To find your joy complete in Jesus - Psalm 16:11, John 3:29, John 15:11 Good feelings come from God and are a part of His good creation. It is on our part to decide whether or not we want to abuse them in a sinful way or to direct them towards God.
I am really glad you dad these videos!! I have had Lupus for 36 years with a lot of organ damage. I have been divorce- my husband could not handle it--2 small boys to raise--Christian parents helped!!! I was a Christian, but had a lot of growing to do. I am 61 now--I have been home bound for the last 4 years. If you had done this then I would have not done well at all. I scored 3 on Yielding--I get tied up with my illness, but I am getting much better at listening!!! Fruits of Spirit-4 have had to -to survive! Empowered--4-I can't do anything much on my own totally dependent!! Worshiping & praying--3-4 no problem in worshiping and thanking--praying for others I do well, but is off and on at times--I have horrid pain and headaches that really interfere. I take time to get over---thanking and dependence are no problem, but actually doing and being totally consistent is difficult. I am in the word everyday come what may!!! My song is "Without Him I Could Do Nothing!!! I can't---without the Holy Spirit, I would lay in bed depressed and totally in a state of self pity--I don't allow that. I may have to be in bed, but I sing praises in my head and thank God for everything!!!
I also have a chronic illness that has cost me a lot & is straining my marriage. I struggle too. I relate a lot to your comment. God bless you in your trials & may He continue to guide us both in the ways of the Holy Spirit. Sending love, sister in Christ❤
"Worship I do very well, prayer I struggle with" #facts I wonder why that is? I believe the natural man in us makes us feel like praying is a form of begging (or just asking another for something, which as men we are not favorites when it comes to asking for help). Something I definitely have to continue to work on. #Amen
What do you do if you can’t hear the promptings?? I am severely struggling to hear those prompting on a daily basis. I want to hear the Holy Spirit voice, but I’m struggling. I thirst for that relationship, but I just don’t feel it or hear it or know it if I do hear it. It makes me want to cry. I want it so badly. I’m a born again Bible believing, my faith is in Jesus Christ, I’ve accepted the free gift of salvation but I’m having trouble hearing God. I don’t know what I’m missing.
-Job 33:14 - For God may speak in one way, or in another, Yet man does not perceive it. -------------- -So God speaks in many ways. In our thoughts, actions, and deeds, when we remember a verse or when we intentionally choose to do good, even if we feel the opposite. (the fact that you clicked on the video, watched it and commented, shows that God spoke to you to get here). -Romans 8:5 - For those who are in accord with the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are in accord with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. ----------------- -Perhaps your thoughts and your mind is not on the things of the Spirit, and it's consumed with worldly things or needs. So be heavenly-minded and think of the things of God. Or think of how God will view every situation, decision and action you do. John 8:31-32 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." -------------------- Even if you're not always hearing the voice of God or leading of the Spirit, Jesus assures you that if you abide by and keep his commandments you are truly his disciple. Examples: Praying without ceasing In all things give thanks Be slow to speak, and slow to be angry Do not provoke another or be jealous of one another John 8:47 Anyone who belongs to God listens gladly to the words of God. But you don’t listen because you don’t belong to God --------------------- Since you are open for answers, it seems that clearly you are one of those who would "listen gladly to the words of God", and therefore it's clear you belong to God. Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. ------------------- You mentioned how sometimes you don't know if it's God or yourself. What you need is Faith and trust in God's word. If it says a thing, believe it. But you can only increase your faith the more and more you read and reflect deeply on the Holy Bible or perhaps in church or watching a sermon, or maybe the video just above. Message- Don't be too hard on yourself. Fruits don't come immediately. Count the little things you see, and believe that it's God working, and don't doubt it saying it's normal human behaviour, God Bless.
Hey family. Is would grade myself with 3,3,4,4 respectively. May God continue to help me understand and apply how to relate to Him in better ways. God bless you Bro. Allen
My score wasn't high lol. But this video was on time because I've been asking Him, "how do I walk in the Spirit, so I'm not yielding to the flesh" So thank you for this video!
Unfortunately I'm not able to answer the first question because I don't hear anything. Since I don't hear anything, there's no way I can tell whether I'm obedient or not
If you already gave you're life to Jesus Christ and you believe in Jesus Christ as you're Lord & Savior, just ask Him to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. God freely gives the Holy Spirit to those that ask Him in faith. You will then be led in peace within you're heart when you're making the right decision and by the lack of peace when attempting to make a wrong decision. It takes time to understand those promptings, because what might seem right logically, might not be what the Holy Spirit wants for you.
This is SOOOO GOOD! I will be “grading” myself more often my brother. I praise the LORD for how He uses this channel! AMEN!! I struggle most with peace. I am learning by God’s grace to TRUST Him with EVERYTHING and it is a fight at times!
I rate myself a 16 or 80%. For a long time and has just been God and me, so I have to rely on the Spirit in a lot of situations where people have maybe a spouse or other family member or close friend to turn to. I struggle with patience because it is hard to have to go it alone for so long. And similarly, I can struggle with self-control because I can get angry when I can’t take it anymore, which I think affects my faithfulness because of waffling in the area of confident trust in the Lord. Another great video. 🙏🏽
I get it, but doesn't rating ourselves subconsciously places us back under the Law of Moses trying to perform for God? Why not just be aware of our righteousness in Christ instead of our shortcomings?
@@gordo191 that scripture is irrelevant to Revelation 22:12. Revelation 22:12 is about giving out rewards unto Christians who use their life and God given gifts to bring unbelievers to Christ. That scripture in James "faith without works is dead" is from a perspective of how we treat each other. God can tell if someone has faith whether it is shown or not shown, but man has to physically see the faith performed to believe it. In the book of 1 Samuel is where God recognizes faith outside of works. "For man looks at the outside, but God looks at the heart."
This is great! Very helpful to apply when examining oneself (2 Corinthians 13:5). I got a score of 11 (4 2 2 3) 😕 not my PIN It was difficult for me to follow if there was 5 ?'s in each area. I'm thinking I did it right.
STOP! I literally just put put out a podcast episode that follows soooo closely with your teaching in this video. The Holy Spirit is spreading this so rapidly!! How amazing is it!
Thank you so much for this video. I feel it is very important to learn about the spirit that dwells in us. The church I am a member of has also been doing a series on the holy spirit and it has been extremely helpful.
I got 65% Yield Spirit, Display Fruits & Empowered Spirit Lowest (All 3). I feel I'm shifting though, seeking more of how be more in & of the Spirit from teachings at my church. I spent all day past Saturday at educational event at my church as member 3 yrs First time getting this involved. I got 85% on Part 1. I need to engulf myself more in the spirit, so I can hear Holy Spirit more. I prayed for man at church in pews as member in congregation. First time doing this for a strnger. I could feel the Spirit wanting me to do this to advance my faith & belief in God. I have less shame to express God's goodness to others. Speak more on Healing others like Jesus did & commanding sickness & disease out of our temple.
Your transparency is very encouraging. Thank God for his mercy and grace. We really don't deserve it, but I'm grateful for it. Blessings to you and your ministry.

Who is the Holy Spirit?. Jesus has the Father who IS HERE and is a spirit "God is a spirit.". That "Father WHO IS A SPIRIT" is called "FATHER" by Jesus. But inversely the "SPIRIT who is the Father" (nothing changes, He is the same God, Jesus just emphasizes He is a spirit) is called "HOLY SPIRIT" by Jesus. You can figure it out from the speech about the TWO blasphemies, where of course you expect the second blasphemy to be directed to the Father. There Jesus REVEALS us that "Holy Spirit" is the personal name given by Him to the "Spirit who is the Father", in order to distinguish Him from other spirits (e.g., from the Spirit of truth). Therefore "HOLY SPIRIT" is simply a SECOND EQUIVALENT NAME of "FATHER," NOT a third divine person. The two fully EQUIVALENT NAMES are used interchangeably in the various events disclosed by the gospels (Mary's pregnancy, Jesus' baptism (the Father - AKA Holy Spirit - speaks and takes actions in heaven), help given to Jesus in his journey into the wilderness and in speaking, the 2 blasphemies...). You have proof that the name "Holy Spirit" identifies the Father: the Holy Spirit is with Jesus, but you know that THE FATHER is the ONLY ONE Person with Jesus "I am not ALONE because the Father is with me" (reiterated many times in all different ways). Therefore, the Holy Spirit with Jesus can only be the Father, who is the ONLY PERSON there with Him. All that means no third divine person exists, just Father and Son ("I am in the Father and the Father is in me"). PERIOD.
Yielding to the Spirit: 3--I need to work on letting myself do the things that The Holy Spirit leads me. I see myself in Gideon. Displaying the fruits of the Spirit: 2--I struggle with showing love, joy, patience and being kind to everyone. Empowered by The Spirit: 4--Basically everything I do that is good is thanks to The Holy Spirit. Worshipping and praying in The Spirit: 4--The Spirit leads me to constantly be thankful. Though I need to be more focused on Jesus. May our good ABBA fill us with more of HIS Spirit in the mighty Name of Jesus. Amen.
The Holy Spirit's instruction to Philip should not be used as the same experience we have as Christians. We don't have the Apostolic authority and gifts like they do. We don't have God's audible voice as they do have. We have the voice of God inscribed in the finished and perfect book, the Bible.
Four types of love: 1.Eros- Is not a giving love, it seeks to fulfill its own desires. 2.Stergo- Primarily pictures a love between parents and children. 2nd Timothy 3-7 3.Phileo- describes Affection 4.Agape- used to describe the love of God

I rated myself brutally rough. Specifically because I look at the people closest to me and how I react.. Test #1) 2 Test #2) 2. I struggle with self control and faithfulness (this area especially when I'm doubting myself, I beat myself up) Test #3) 3. I believe I execute what I do because of the Spirit, I need to lean in more. Test #4) 3. I'm good with worship, but struggle with prayer
1. Holy Spirit prompting---4 When I know its wrong, I am convicted and I will correct. I grew here. Not perfect! 2. Fruit of Spirit--3 Patience, faith, self control. Parience is terrible. Faith, I doubt sometimes. Self-control, need to die to flesh. 3. Empowered by the Spirit- 4 4. Worshipping and praying in the Spirit---3 I am a praise and worship leader. This is my way of escape when dealing with those fruits of the Spirit when I struggle with them. I will do this more than pray. Smh! Growing in this though.
Mr Allen parr...you said in a video some months ago if we had questions to pose them to you. Well this is a question and a video idea. You have done video about witnessing to non believers....the thing that non believers struggle with is PROOF of God....PROOF of his "hand" in life circumstances or PROOF he existed back then and now. How do we as Christians PROVE he exist without using the Bible perse as a reference. When a Christian uses the Bible as reference non believers always say "that book is written by men, why should I believe them."? So how do we demonstrate and prove Christ without the good book as a marker....PLEASE HELP
“If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). Now is the time to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Obey His commands and repent of your sins because Jesus is coming back soon. Tomorrow isn’t promised.
Hey family, this is part 2 of this little series on the flesh vs. the Spirit. I hope you enjoy this and share your score below!
Goodmorning to you and your family Bro./Pastor Parr.....thanks for the Word of God again
Thank you Allen you encouraged me and made me see that i am not the only one struggling
I cannot find part one.🥲
Downloaded in your Spirit? But the Spirit has to bring it to your mind later? 🤔
Peter and Paul did not have the Bible, we do. It is obvious things were different at that time. God used things to get the church started, to get the Word out to people of that time that the savior had come. That Jesus is the savior.
To anyone reading this let us pray and Agree: Dear God, Thank You for the many precious promises we have from You. Thank You, that you have promised to be with us and to keep us no matter where we are or how far we roam. I pray for Your protection and grace be with us through the day and night, Let us come closer to you. In Jesus Name. Amen
Amen
Amen!
Hallelujah and amen!

I’ll watch your neck Rick all the time really enjoy your videos AOC Netwerk keep up the good work
AMEN dude I really appreciate your Christ centered and Scripturally accurate content Gerald from AOC Network's TH-cam channel ministry please keep it up for the furtherance of The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏❤️👊. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.

It will be ok seek help confess your sins to others and when evil gets shined upon it flees from the light. The lord is will you do not fear or be anxious just pray and try to read and pray. God loves you all so so much. Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Just keep on pressed bro 😎 y’all got this.

20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.
Ezekiel is a joke dude. Why even take it seriously?

The gospel of salvation -how to be saved for sure!
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we make Him Lord of our life.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we repent and get baptized.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we fear God and work righteousness.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we confess our sins and ask for His forgiveness.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we receive Him as our personal savior.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we believe He died for our sins.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we invite the Lord into our heart.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we receive the Eucharist of holy communion.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we keep the commandments and sell our possessions.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we forgive those who have trespassed against us.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we stop sinning.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we walk the isle and join the church.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we pray the sinners prayer.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we are confirmed.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we deny ourself, take up our cross and follow Him.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we observe Yom Kippur.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we endure unto the end.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we kneel at an old fashioned altar and cry a hot scalding bucket of tears.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if while listening to "Just as I am" we decide to walk the isle and give our heart to the Lord.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we pray the rosary.
The gospel is not "Christ died for our sins" if we DO ANYTHING!
Don't pervert it by adding to it.
The gospel is found in 1 Corinthians chapter 15:1-4. "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel... By which also ye are saved,... how that Christ died for our sins... he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures."
Just keep it simple. (2 Corinthians 11:3)
God says salvation is found through faith in the finished cross-work and resurrection (Ephesians 2:8-9.)
It is only faith that can justify and count for our righteousness.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. (Romans 4:5)
Salvation is not getting our sins forgiven, it's believing they already are!

But the fruits of the spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, faith. Meekness, Temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5: 22,23
Fruit, dear one, not fruits.
I would love to hear more about walking in the spirit. Thank you Alan parr for making a videos that I can always understand. And it seems like every time I'm struggling with something you come out with a video that covers it. Every time. I struggle with letting God take full control. And a lot of other things but I'm working on it. God bless you. and everyone that sees this.
I still don't know how I can tell if I'm walking in the spirit or not. Is it just methaphorical?

@@2ndPigeon Does the Holy Spirit abide in you? Have you been born again?
@@sandragambrel9721 According to my pastor he does after my babitism. But ive never heard of a good way of finding out if that's true.
@@2ndPigeon We take things by faith. We believe what the Bible says as truth. We can also know by speaking in tongues. It was, and still is, a sign that the believer had received the HS. But when the Chruch teaches against it, it becomes harder to receive. The Holy Spirit is being grieved and quenched by many.
If you mean water Baptism, that is not true. When you believed with your heart and confessed with your mouth that Jesus Christ is who He, and the Word of God says He is, and the HS has revealed this to you, then you are filled and sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise. God promised to send the HS to abide in you. This you must believe, as well as everything else He says He wants to give you.
Read Acts. It's a transition from Law to Grace. The disciples first taught you had to be baptized in water for the remission of sin, but that's not correct. When people started speaking in tongues upon "hearing" the Word of God, they knew it wasn't received by being baptized in water first.
There's no remission of sin without the shedding of blood.
We must believe He wants to give us these things for us to receive them.
We can't come to God without Him drawing us unto Himself. It's the work of the HS to reveal Jesus to us, in all His glory.
Water Baptism is what you do afterwards so the whole world knows (even the angels see) that you believe in the life, death, and resurrection, of Jesus Christ, and now you have been raised from spiritually dead to spiritual living as well. It's a declaration, a ritual, of what has happened to you. It isn't necessary for salvation. We believe, baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire, and then water baptized.
You no longer walk in the Kingdom of Darkness. You have been translated into the Kingdom of Light. Now, that doesn't mean you didn't carry some of the darkness with you when you came. They are called Strongholds the devil/evil spirits have built up in you and have deceived you with in the past. We have to spend time looking for the "old" lies we used to believe and purge those from our minds and hearts and replace them with the truth we find in Christ. As we do, our light shines brighter and brighter.
You are on the right path. He's as close as your own breath.
If you are thirsty, He will fill you with living water, even to overflowing, amen! You'll be splashing your living water all over others, and they will be blessed, too, praise God.
I need to ask forgiveness from a couple folks that I wronged before I was walking with the Lord. Both from years back.. Pray for courage for me.. Joshua 1:9 has been constant in my heart and mind as of late "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Love you all, and thank you Allen for another video, and the time and work it takes to produce them.
Are you gonna ask for forgiveness because you think God will punish you or because you genuinly want to?
Robbie I've been thinking about Joshua and the message God gave him also. It seems that every where I look and all of my thoughts have been to be courageous, courageous, courageous! I'm reminded daily in my walk with God. 🙏🏾✨🕊
As I prepared to make coffee one morning, I heard. "No more coffee - tea." So I quit drinking coffee and. now my stomach upsets are rare rather than constant. Thank you Lord!
I think that for some reason God is working on my physical health. Perhaps because I'm 73? I get messages such as 'start eating clean foods only', 'quit storing food in plastic', 'quit drinking water out of plastic bottles'. When I quit drinking from plastic bottles, the joint pain that I suffered in my shoulders and hips for many, many years disappeared Within a few days. Thank you, God!.
Amen
Thank you for sharing this. Reminds me this has also happened to me but I have now ignored these promptings for better health.
Holy spirit also told me no coffee
Holy spirit guided me to other same with clean foods
I'm 40 and God's telling me the same about health
Please continue to let the Holy Spirit lead you in teaching his sheep. To God who gets all the glory
How can I tell if the holy spirit is leading me?
Great teaching as always brother parr!!! I’m currently at a 3,3,3 and a low 2 on the last one this is amazing for showing the areas I need to improve in God bless brother! I got an 11 so a 55% I got some work to do
i got a 4,3,2,3 God bless!

Thank you for being transparent. My struggle is with patience; especially while driving. I drive for a living part time and I treat it like a drag race. I knew it was wrong, but now I will be in prayer and bring in the Holy Spirit while driving!
What does it mean to bring in the holy spirit while driving?
Same with me😟. I was driving on a flat tire and didn’t know I was going about 80.
2ndPigeon It means that I will pray and invite the Holy Spirit to be my guide.
Truthful F... I just recently did that too; but when I came to a light, the other driver told me I had a flat!!!
@@taysinc Doesn't your boss or GPS do that?
What is the holy spirit contribute?
Pray God strengthens His children, gives them more discernment and pours more fire upon them
Hey Mr. Allen I recently committed to accountability through Covenant Eyes and when I did my ability to resist my temptation as skyrocketed through the roof. So I appreciate the notice about that amazing app.
Please do more videos on these two topics! Just listening and being honest with myself about areas that I struggle with, was illuminating. Thank you so much🙏🏾
*50%*
yielding: *3.* I'm not perfect, so sometimes I can discern when the holy spirit is prompting me to do or not to do something. Other times, I might not know or even obey the holy spirit.
displaying: *3 for all.*
empowered: *2.* It isn't very often that I experience this.
worship and praying: *2.* Again, I'm not perfect. I struggle praying and worshipping correctly.
Phillip and Peter did not have the New Testament, we do! If any feeling we think is from the Holy Spirit does not line up with God’s Word it is not from the Holy Spirit.
If we are not humbly studying ALL of God’s Word in context trusting and obeying God asking for wisdom and discernment we will think all kinds of things are the Holy Spirit. God does not say empowering is evident by a lot of miracles!
Singing worship to God? Lifting hands is never said to be worship in the Bible! Read it, worship is BOWING DOWN to God.
Does God say our prayers need to be empowered?🤔
Worship and praying in the Spirit? Where is that in God’s Word????
The fruit of the Spirit is THE fruit, not plural with a s. If you only have symptoms of some of it you do not have Him.
I can tell that you really care about other believers by making videos like this to help us. Thank you!
You got to know who the holyspirit is to walk in it. Walking in the spirit requires us to bring God words into everything we do so he can make our paths straight. Praising God worshiping him in spirit and truth. Follow God in deed and truth. Loving God with all thy heart mind soul and strength. Love,joy,peace patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness gentleness and self control are the fruit of the spirit. So ask God to help walk in the fruits of righteousness then you are walking in the spirit.
Thank you
@@caliboytd83 God bless you it not easy but he will finish the work he starts in us
THANK YOU BROTHER ALLEN FOR YOUR MINISTRY AND DEDICATION! You are a blessing!
So I say walk by the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh . Galatians 5:16 .
This was very encouraging. Though I only scored a 12 (3's across the board), it showed me that I am growing in these areas and where I might need work.
1 - 3 I'm sensitive to promptings, but lack the strength to always carry them out.
2 - 3 I'm definitely growing in all areas of fruit, but I struggle with gentleness. I come from a hard background, and the Lord is still softening my heart.
3 - 3 As it relates to #1, I struggle with boldness and carrying out the Spirit's leading.
4 - 3 I can worship like no other, but I could always pray more.
Thanks brother Parr
Random acts of kindness is me! I believe in the gifts of the spirit y'all... I just randomly bless folks. Whether it be with a word of encouragement or buy them a cup of coffee. Thankful for this video because its a personal confirmation that the gifts are still in operation 😊
First of all you have to have the Spirit/seed and that's by faith alone. Then after your saved eternally you obey his word. Even if you don't feel like it the sprit is still at work.
What do you have to take on faith to have the spirit? Or what definition of faith are you using?
@@2ndPigeon to each man a measure of faith God gives. Faith has to be in the correct object to become saving faith. Just like you believe chair will hold you up when you sit in it. That's faith exercised. To place your faith in Christ and his sacrifice is saving faith. You choose to rely upon the Lamb that was slain and christ crucified the coin and the finished work of Christ Jesus presenting me justified by faith to God by his shed blood. Jesus doing what he said he would do. Save you to the uttermost. Hebrews says see that you enter that rest. I was trying of I'm trusting. I was running 🏃♀️ now I'm resting
Exactly 💯. AMEN brother Allen Parr I really appreciate how The Lord our God has used your ministry for the furtherance of The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏❤️👊. You've reached thousands to millions of people who are really seeking after The Truth of God's Existence, Word and Character in whether Christianity is true or not people will always disagree but to have good reasoning for agreeing or disagreeing with someone is important so thanks for uploading this video. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.
@@donaldwortham6227
Could you skip the religious platitudes please? I want to understand you but sentences like "Faith has to be in the correct object to become saving faith." just really doesn't mean anything.
Faith is just gullibility so I don't see much use for it.
@@2ndPigeon your a sinner. He wants us to turn from our sins.. God hates sin. He sent his son Jesus born of the virgin Mary. To die on the cross in your place. Some body had to pay the penalty. So if you reject the only payment God will reject you. You will have to pay for it throughout eternity. It's free. It's eternal and will never change. In order to go to heaven you have to be pardoned of all sins past present and future and given a new heart. You want like the things you used to like. So if you want to be saved. just tell Jesus you accept his payment, him on the cross, for your sins and new heart for salvation and he will hear and save you eternally. Just ask him to do it and he will do it. He will save you to the uttermost.
Honestly I would give myself a 2 with the fruits. I have a hard time with emotions. And like you, I'm not very patient and get irritable with people
To anyone who sees this, I struggle with lust and sexual immorality. I don't know how to overcome it. I believe in God and what Jesus did for me. I am a Christian yet I am always giving in to these particular temptations.
Same here
I struggle with food I am entirely too heavy it is my comfort Lord please help me stop turning to food for gratification also I need to work on my patience level with adults I also need to stop smoking
I have prayed for myself and I am asking my fellow Christian brothers and sisters to please pray for me and with me to do better walking in the spirit
You are doing a great job, please keep going. Walking, living in the Holy Spirit is so important. Please keep sharing your great insights, you are a blessing. Thank you and God bless you.
Thank you Allan I enjoy your videos thank you for teaching us every time
Thank you Jesus for dying for my sins. I’m still trusting in you even though I’m struggling putting groceries in the refrigerator, and paying bills. I lost my job because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition (Lupus) and Heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption from Forsyth Hospital. My husband passed away three years ago, Im all alone. I’m a single mother. Both of my sons are autistic and non verbal. Every month is a struggle, a battle to not end up on the streets. I’m so depressed and embarrassed by my situation. I post my story all over to spread awareness of what mandates are doing, not just to myself but to many other families. I’ve been put down and mocked because of my circumstances it truly hurts me. BUT even after all these things. I STILL HAVE FAITH GOD WILL PROVIDE. He has sent strangers to help me. I’m forever grateful! EVEN as I face homelessness seemly every month with two young children. I have faith our Heavenly Father will provide. Thank you Jesus.
God bless you friend.
God bless you!
Keep on having faith and trust in our Almighty God, He hears and answers our prayers. I am still praying for you and your sons. God bless
God is greater
How can we help you?
May God bless you and your family. (As well as the rest of the people watching this video, and those who are not). I scored a 15.7 out of 20. I did better than I thought but I still got some work to do. As one of the only kids in my school that believes in our Lord, your videos really help
normally I don't know how to worship and pray but the Holy Spirit has been helping me and even coming up with ideas on how to preach the gospel in the drama form.
Powerful lesson, make you truly look at ourselves in maintaining our walk with the Lord. Thanks and God Bless You 🙏🏾
Amen, we all struggle that’s why we need Jesus Christ, the spiritual warfare is real, the battle belongs to Christ. We’re bias on how we see ourselves, only God can measure our struggles and level of faith.

It sounds like your saying make sure you're right with God first before starting the study......
Wow.....🤦🤷

When witnessing, I often feel quite strongly - well, it's like my feet are dragging, so to speak.
Time and again I can still speak up, even just a bit, because I remind myself that it's not my strength that I need to rely on. It's hard to push to say even simple things, sometimes, but God is good.
Prompting: I remember some failures, I think, and some successes. None of the failures are on God's part - any actual successes (I don't know everything) are because of His mercy.
Fruit: I genuinely think some people near me might place me as very patient, but I see where I struggle there.
Working on self-control, too.
Walking: trying to remember to be grateful throughout the day, and that 'all things work together for good for them that love God.' A lot of obstacles and difficulties pop up, but eyes should always be moving off of the storm and back onto the Savior.

Thanks for the vid!

Currently there's a struggle at my job. Praying for deliverance here: there's a decision (not related to my area) that I'm in disagreement with (I believe it's sinful), and that I spoke up against.
I get worries like "Did I not do enough? Should I have pushed harder?" or related.
At the same time, I'm to be a reliable worker that represents Christ: to act in a way that honors Jesus.
These worries are the exact type of thing that should serve as a reminder to focus back on Jesus and trying to reflect Him. To yield this to Him, and follow His guidance, rather than trying to mull things over constantly in my power. If I constantly am wondering "Should I do more? Did I do wrong?" (etc.), then I'm not yielding to Him, I'm stifling myself in worry while trying to find some loophole or the like.
I've a long way to go, but Jesus is worthy.
You sound horribly indoctrinated. I hope you get out one day. Check out the recovery from religion foundation. They help people from all cults and religions find their way out of superstition.
The flesh video and the Spirit video were so convicting that I actually put it (the flesh one) off until I was ready to face some truths about myself, but that conviction has led to freedom as well as hope that it’s the Spirit who helps me to overcome and by His grace, I press on towards the heavenly goal/prize. Thankful to the Lord for you, Brother Allen!
Walking in the spirit sounds a lot like obedience, gullibility, and susceptibility. How do you tell the difference between something you feel like doing and being led by the holy spirit?

There you have it. But I am trusting God to perfect that which concerns me in the spirit.
Thank you for sharing Bro. Parr!! God bless you 🙏
Not going to lie, this one was confusing to do lol. Scored a 50 but I cant say I really notice the holy spirit pushing me to do much of anything other than the basic right or wrong choices anyone could make. I also dont notice the spirit allowing me to do anything either, then again I dont fully understand that. Any advice?
Allen, patience is the number one thing I learned from my father. I can wait until the cows come home, so to speak. My Dad was a pastor at our church since I was a child. He passed away in 2017. Learned a lot about the fruits of the spirit. Still learning. God bless you brother and keep spreading the message of God to the nation.
So my question is..are you talking about the little voice that I hear a lot, about doing or knowing what I should do? I say it's God but others call it our conscience. Also I really needed to listen to this but I find the music very distracting and seems to compete with what you are saying.
Thank you
I got a 60-70%. There are a ton of areas that I am struggling with. I am not even certain about how well I am doing at times.
I am currently struggling with addiction. And this is affecting my relationship with God. If you all would pray with me I would be totally grateful
Thnx bro Allan..give us more teaching..about..holyspirit..u..r blesed..in jesus name..Amen
The Lord is coming! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!!
Lord, Please help me grow and walk with you better..through your Spirit please let the fruits 🍉 of the Spirit grow in my life so that I don’t gratify that flesh and sin .. Thank you Jesus for your strength and love
💯💥🔥🔥...this was so good ty💕🙏
Recently this week I read Romans 12 with my family and it brought up the spirit. I didn't have a very solid idea of what being or walking in the spirit meant so this video was very helpful.
A question I have is concerning worship, how do you determine whether you are worshipping in the spirit or if it's just feel good emotional feelings? Or does the Holy Spirit give us those good feelings. How do you differentiate worshipping purely on emotional feelings versus worshipping in the Spirit?
I used to ask myself the same question. I arrived at this - All good things come from God so if I feel good while worshiping I dont analyze or question it, I take my joy and good feelings at the time as a gift from God. What I don't do is rely on it or expect my worship to always bring emotional euphoria. Sometimes depression is not lifted after a session of prayer or worship but I do not rate my worship only on the good feelings it produces but on the fact that I am giving God His due regardless if it makes me feel good or not. Not sure if I made any sense lol but just wanted you to know that I can relate.😊
Yeah, I think it makes more sense seeing it like that. Thanks for the input!
@@chickeneater7128 Ya welcome! 😁 Honestly didn't know if that made sense to anybody else but me so glad to help.😊
What?! No! 🤦♂️ if it feels good, it’s from God?! And y’all are like , “yeah that makes sense!”?! How’s that been working out for you since?
It's been going great! I've learned a lot about walking in the Spirit these past few months. It means to live your life not basing your joy upon your earthly performance but in the finished work of Christ. The Christian walk does not call for the ignorance of emotions but the directing of your emotions.
To find your joy complete in Jesus - Psalm 16:11, John 3:29, John 15:11
Good feelings come from God and are a part of His good creation. It is on our part to decide whether or not we want to abuse them in a sinful way or to direct them towards God.
Thank you for the video. I love these type of videos!
I am really glad you dad these videos!! I have had Lupus for 36 years with a lot of organ damage. I have been divorce- my husband could not handle it--2 small boys to raise--Christian parents helped!!! I was a Christian, but had a lot of growing to do. I am 61 now--I have been home bound for the last 4 years. If you had done this then I would have not done well at all. I scored 3 on Yielding--I get tied up with my illness, but I am getting much better at listening!!! Fruits of Spirit-4 have had to -to survive! Empowered--4-I can't do anything much on my own totally dependent!! Worshiping & praying--3-4 no problem in worshiping and thanking--praying for others I do well, but is off and on at times--I have horrid pain and headaches that really interfere. I take time to get over---thanking and dependence are no problem, but actually doing and being totally consistent is difficult. I am in the word everyday come what may!!! My song is "Without Him I Could Do Nothing!!! I can't---without the Holy Spirit, I would lay in bed depressed and totally in a state of self pity--I don't allow that. I may have to be in bed, but I sing praises in my head and thank God for everything!!!
I also have a chronic illness that has cost me a lot & is straining my marriage. I struggle too. I relate a lot to your comment. God bless you in your trials & may He continue to guide us both in the ways of the Holy Spirit. Sending love, sister in Christ❤
God Loves You Remember That ✝️❤️🙏🏾
"Worship I do very well, prayer I struggle with" #facts I wonder why that is? I believe the natural man in us makes us feel like praying is a form of begging (or just asking another for something, which as men we are not favorites when it comes to asking for help). Something I definitely have to continue to work on. #Amen
Holiness:
Test1 = 4 // Test2 = 2 // Test3 = 3 // Test4 = 3
Same here
What do you do if you can’t hear the promptings?? I am severely struggling to hear those prompting on a daily basis. I want to hear the Holy Spirit voice, but I’m struggling. I thirst for that relationship, but I just don’t feel it or hear it or know it if I do hear it. It makes me want to cry. I want it so badly. I’m a born again Bible believing, my faith is in Jesus Christ, I’ve accepted the free gift of salvation but I’m having trouble hearing God. I don’t know what I’m missing.
-Job 33:14 - For God may speak in one way, or in another, Yet man does not perceive it.
--------------
-So God speaks in many ways. In our thoughts, actions, and deeds, when we remember a verse or when we intentionally choose to do good, even if we feel the opposite.
(the fact that you clicked on the video, watched it and commented, shows that God spoke to you to get here).
-Romans 8:5 - For those who are in accord with the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are in accord with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
-----------------
-Perhaps your thoughts and your mind is not on the things of the Spirit, and it's consumed with worldly things or needs. So be heavenly-minded and think of the things of God. Or think of how God will view every situation, decision and action you do.
John 8:31-32
Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
--------------------
Even if you're not always hearing the voice of God or leading of the Spirit, Jesus assures you that if you abide by and keep his commandments you are truly his disciple.
Examples:
Praying without ceasing
In all things give thanks
Be slow to speak, and slow to be angry
Do not provoke another or be jealous of one another
John 8:47
Anyone who belongs to God listens gladly to the words of God. But you don’t listen because you don’t belong to God
---------------------
Since you are open for answers, it seems that clearly you are one of those who would "listen gladly to the words of God", and therefore it's clear you belong to God.
Romans 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
-------------------
You mentioned how sometimes you don't know if it's God or yourself. What you need is Faith and trust in God's word. If it says a thing, believe it. But you can only increase your faith the more and more you read and reflect deeply on the Holy Bible or perhaps in church or watching a sermon, or maybe the video just above.
Message- Don't be too hard on yourself. Fruits don't come immediately. Count the little things you see, and believe that it's God working, and don't doubt it saying it's normal human behaviour, God Bless.
More of these videos please.
Hey family. Is would grade myself with 3,3,4,4 respectively. May God continue to help me understand and apply how to relate to Him in better ways. God bless you Bro. Allen
My score wasn't high lol. But this video was on time because I've been asking Him, "how do I walk in the Spirit, so I'm not yielding to the flesh" So thank you for this video!
Unfortunately I'm not able to answer the first question because I don't hear anything. Since I don't hear anything, there's no way I can tell whether I'm obedient or not
If you already gave you're life to Jesus Christ and you believe in Jesus Christ as you're Lord & Savior, just ask Him to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. God freely gives the Holy Spirit to those that ask Him in faith. You will then be led in peace within you're heart when you're making the right decision and by the lack of peace when attempting to make a wrong decision. It takes time to understand those promptings, because what might seem right logically, might not be what the Holy Spirit wants for you.
Yes!!!! Please do more on this series! I love this video!
I loved these videos. Great for reflection!
Thanks for video!
Allen, thank you for making so many helpful videos! May God continue to bless your ministry!
This is SOOOO GOOD! I will be “grading” myself more often my brother. I praise the LORD for how He uses this channel! AMEN!!
I struggle most with peace. I am learning by God’s grace to TRUST Him with EVERYTHING and it is a fight at times!
I rate myself a 16 or 80%. For a long time and has just been God and me, so I have to rely on the Spirit in a lot of situations where people have maybe a spouse or other family member or close friend to turn to. I struggle with patience because it is hard to have to go it alone for so long. And similarly, I can struggle with self-control because I can get angry when I can’t take it anymore, which I think affects my faithfulness because of waffling in the area of confident trust in the Lord. Another great video. 🙏🏽
I get it, but doesn't rating ourselves subconsciously places us back under the Law of Moses trying to perform for God? Why not just be aware of our righteousness in Christ instead of our shortcomings?
We are not saved by our works but we are judged by our works , REVELATION 22 v 12
@@gordo191According to this scripture, I wouldn't say judged, but rather rewarded.
@@anointedanomaly3282 James 2 v 17 Even so faith if it has no works it is dead
@@gordo191 that scripture is irrelevant to Revelation 22:12. Revelation 22:12 is about giving out rewards unto Christians who use their life and God given gifts to bring unbelievers to Christ. That scripture in James "faith without works is dead" is from a perspective of how we treat each other. God can tell if someone has faith whether it is shown or not shown, but man has to physically see the faith performed to believe it. In the book of 1 Samuel is where God recognizes faith outside of works. "For man looks at the outside, but God looks at the heart."

Alan Your honesty is refreshing! Awesome video! As a baby christian with a 10 year backround in newage I have a lot of work to do
Praise God! You got this sister💜
Your channel is a blessing. So encouraging for me. God bless you Allen!
This is great! Very helpful to apply when examining oneself (2 Corinthians 13:5). I got a score of 11 (4 2 2 3) 😕 not my PIN
It was difficult for me to follow if there was 5 ?'s in each area. I'm thinking I did it right.
STOP! I literally just put put out a podcast episode that follows soooo closely with your teaching in this video. The Holy Spirit is spreading this so rapidly!! How amazing is it!
Thank you so much for this video. I feel it is very important to learn about the spirit that dwells in us. The church I am a member of has also been doing a series on the holy spirit and it has been extremely helpful.
Great teaching Allen! Really enjoyed it! My score was, 3, then 3- I struggle with patience and gentleness, 4 & 4
I got 65% Yield Spirit, Display Fruits & Empowered Spirit Lowest (All 3). I feel I'm shifting though, seeking more of how be more in & of the Spirit from teachings at my church. I spent all day past Saturday at educational event at my church as member 3 yrs First time getting this involved. I got 85% on Part 1. I need to engulf myself more in the spirit, so I can hear Holy Spirit more. I prayed for man at church in pews as member in congregation. First time doing this for a strnger. I could feel the Spirit wanting me to do this to advance my faith & belief in God. I have less shame to express God's goodness to others. Speak more on Healing others like Jesus did & commanding sickness & disease out of our temple.
Your transparency is very encouraging. Thank God for his mercy and grace. We really don't deserve it, but I'm grateful for it. Blessings to you and your ministry.
Amen 🤍🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🙏🙌🙌💪🏾

I got a 6 out of 20. I'm so bad I don't think any real Christian could say I'm an actual believer. I'm a goat and not a sheep.

Who is the Holy Spirit?. Jesus has the Father who IS HERE and is a spirit "God is a spirit.". That "Father WHO IS A SPIRIT" is called "FATHER" by Jesus. But inversely the "SPIRIT who is the Father" (nothing changes, He is the same God, Jesus just emphasizes He is a spirit) is called "HOLY SPIRIT" by Jesus. You can figure it out from the speech about the TWO blasphemies, where of course you expect the second blasphemy to be directed to the Father. There Jesus REVEALS us that "Holy Spirit" is the personal name given by Him to the "Spirit who is the Father", in order to distinguish Him from other spirits (e.g., from the Spirit of truth). Therefore "HOLY SPIRIT" is simply a SECOND EQUIVALENT NAME of "FATHER," NOT a third divine person. The two fully EQUIVALENT NAMES are used interchangeably in the various events disclosed by the gospels (Mary's pregnancy, Jesus' baptism (the Father - AKA Holy Spirit - speaks and takes actions in heaven), help given to Jesus in his journey into the wilderness and in speaking, the 2 blasphemies...).
You have proof that the name "Holy Spirit" identifies the Father: the Holy Spirit is with Jesus, but you know that THE FATHER is the ONLY ONE Person with Jesus "I am not ALONE because the Father is with me" (reiterated many times in all different ways). Therefore, the Holy Spirit with Jesus can only be the Father, who is the ONLY PERSON there with Him. All that means no third divine person exists, just Father and Son ("I am in the Father and the Father is in me"). PERIOD.
Yielding to the Spirit: 3--I need to work on letting myself do the things that The Holy Spirit leads me. I see myself in Gideon. Displaying the fruits of the Spirit: 2--I struggle with showing love, joy, patience and being kind to everyone.
Empowered by The Spirit: 4--Basically everything I do that is good is thanks to The Holy Spirit.
Worshipping and praying in The Spirit: 4--The Spirit leads me to constantly be thankful. Though I need to be more focused on Jesus.
May our good ABBA fill us with more of HIS Spirit in the mighty Name of Jesus. Amen.
Yielding to the spirits promoting 3/5, fruits of the spirit 2.5/5, empowerment of the spirit 3/5, worship and prayer 3/5, total 11.5/20
The Holy Spirit's instruction to Philip should not be used as the same experience we have as Christians. We don't have the Apostolic authority and gifts like they do. We don't have God's audible voice as they do have. We have the voice of God inscribed in the finished and perfect book, the Bible.
Four types of love:
1.Eros- Is not a giving love, it seeks to fulfill its own desires. 2.Stergo- Primarily pictures a love between parents and children. 2nd Timothy 3-7 3.Phileo- describes Affection 4.Agape- used to describe the love of God

I rated myself brutally rough. Specifically because I look at the people closest to me and how I react..
Test #1) 2
Test #2) 2. I struggle with self control and faithfulness (this area especially when I'm doubting myself, I beat myself up)
Test #3) 3. I believe I execute what I do because of the Spirit, I need to lean in more.
Test #4) 3. I'm good with worship, but struggle with prayer
Thank you for your efforts...I rate myself @ 55% but I'm not trippin' because God is not through with me yet😊😊😊😊😊😊
1. Holy Spirit prompting---4 When I know its wrong, I am convicted and I will correct. I grew here. Not perfect!
2. Fruit of Spirit--3 Patience, faith, self control. Parience is terrible. Faith, I doubt sometimes. Self-control, need to die to flesh.
3. Empowered by the Spirit- 4
4. Worshipping and praying in the Spirit---3
I am a praise and worship leader. This is my way of escape when dealing with those fruits of the Spirit when I struggle with them. I will do this more than pray. Smh! Growing in this though.
Mr Allen parr...you said in a video some months ago if we had questions to pose them to you. Well this is a question and a video idea. You have done video about witnessing to non believers....the thing that non believers struggle with is PROOF of God....PROOF of his "hand" in life circumstances or PROOF he existed back then and now. How do we as Christians PROVE he exist without using the Bible perse as a reference. When a Christian uses the Bible as reference non believers always say "that book is written by men, why should I believe them."? So how do we demonstrate and prove Christ without the good book as a marker....PLEASE HELP
“If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). Now is the time to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Obey His commands and repent of your sins because Jesus is coming back soon. Tomorrow isn’t promised.
Thankful for this message Brother Allen. I have work to do, I rated at 11.
